BC finished the first half 5 of 11 on 3-pointers, but made only 1 of 13 in the second.

‘‘Their hands were everywhere, and they made it difficult for our penetrators to get by them,’’ BC coach Erik Johnson said. ‘‘And when they did, they had hands in every passing lane, and it made it really hard for us to get our shooters open.”

Kristen Doherty scored 14 points to lead the Eagles (8-11, 2-6 ACC), who have dropped four straight.

Haley Peters scored 15 points and grabbed 13 rebounds to lead Duke (18-1, 8-0), which won its 34th straight ACC home game.
